I was watching pokemon on the TV, when I accidentally switched the channel and saw a burning building on live news . I was about 12 years old at the time and called my mom to watch and she was shocked!

Was the first full week of sophomore year in college. I was sleeping in for having a late class on Tuesdays and was woken up early. My grumpiness quickly turned to awe when turning on the TV. Campus was a ghost town (I erred on the side of assuming classes still being in session when they weren't).

I was in morning report getting pimped with all the other residents when one of the guys got a call from his wife saying a plane had just hit the WTC (the first one). Needless to say things went downhill from there.
